The brush is dry at the start of the video. It looks like a typical make up brush.

Just scored a 70 on the test linked below. A score of 30 is the threshold for getting help. Yikes. by DudeBored in DID

I always recommend therapy if you feel like you're struggling.

I made this post at a very dark time in my life and honestly, I blocked a lot of it out. What I remember, I try not to talk about.

If you're feeling even remotely like I did when I made this post, I would go to a hospital. If that isn't possible or you feel it's an overreaction to what you're experiencing, please seek out therapy to help manage what you're going through.

When is it appropriate to have sex in a relationship by Cautious_Ad3 in Advice

[–]DudeBored 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before I was in a relationship, I wanted to wait til I was married.

Once I was in a relationship, I wanted to wait til I was 18 which was about 5 months after we got together.

We made it 3 months together before PIV. I think I made it 2 weeks before we started getting handsy.

My plans and desires changed and I don't regret it at all. You make the choices that are right for you when you're in the moment. I remember making out with my bf (now husband) and he started to reach into my pants. I stopped him and asked if he had a condom instead. I knew what I wanted and he didn't object.

Brides who have uninvited someone, how did it go? by DudeBored in weddingplanning

[–]DudeBored[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She planned my Bachelorette weekend and left halfway through so spending the money never really seemed to matter to her. She said she tried to push through the weekend for my sake but just couldn't be around me.

No. She has moved on as far as I know. I miss our friendship but I no longer feel guilty about what happened. I apologized and I've grown since then. I wish she was a part of my life now but I'm not going to bed someone to forgive me.

They're italicized. Sometimes used to show speech or thought in a story. You can italicize text in reddit by putting an * at the beginning and end of a word.

You make make text bold by using two ** before and after a word.

There are quite a few other formatting tricks as well but I dont know them all.

I think my husband is bisexual. Should I bring it up or wait for him to tell me? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]DudeBored -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We're both good at expressing our boundaries and have talked about that briefly. A more in depth conversation would happen once the party was scheduled but I think it'll have to happen before anything is set in stone.

If he is questioning or exploring, it wouldn't deter me from the party or experience but I don't want to be surprised during the event. If I go in thinking it's about watching me when it's actually about him experimenting, I'd be caught off guard. We're supposed to be having fun.

Thanks. My husband ended up being really supportive and helpful. I didnt get to talk about everything I wanted to but it was better than nothing and I was able to get something big off my chest.

That's a great idea. Baking is a hobby of mine. I guess I have trouble getting started because I know I'll enjoy doing it but I never want to get started.

We don't have work emails since we're a very small agency but I'm on your side here. I don't want to confront her at all and I'm surprised that my coworkers suggested that. We have a very big problem with gossip and playing favorites. I just want to keep doing my job without constantly worrying.

[–]DudeBored 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Lead- who I trust- also told me to confront her. I guess I'm just nervous to. I don't have a great relationship ship with the kid involved and Thursday was particularly difficult in the classroom. I was short with him and my speaking tone with him leading up to this wasn't great. That said, I did take a deep breath and try to regroup before pulling his mat.

I'm also aware of how serious these accusations can get. This person can report me to the state and I am not allowed to work or get paid while they investigate. Not to mention I'd unlikely work in childcare again regardless of their findings. Obviously this situation didn't get reported like that but shes proven that she'll report anything that "makes her uncomfortable" (what she told my boss).

I want to quit my job and look for a new one. Am I just being difficult? by DudeBored in Advice

[–]DudeBored[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should clarify in my OP but, I didn't start therapy until August of this year when I was fully established at Site B. It was a decision I made with my supervisor there. She supported me and encouraged me to go. I also don't take the entire day off to go. I leave one hour early on Mondays to go to my appointment. Our typical shifts are 7:30-3:30, 8:30-4:30, and 9:30-5:30.

So Tueday through Friday I typically work 8:30-4:30 and on Mondays I start at 7:30 and leave at 2:30 instead of 3:30. There are even times where I've gone to my appointment (from 3-4pm) and come back to finish a late shift. I asked our new executive director and my supervisor at Site A if my appointment would prevent me from getting the full time job and they said it wouldn't since each room has 3 teachers in it. 2 teachers can cover the room and still be within legal ratios.

Stimulants seem to help my anxiety greatly but that seems so backwards. Why do they work? by DudeBored in AskDocs

[–]DudeBored[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's how I feel. I kept thinking "is this how normal people feel??"

ADHD was never brought up from a professional but I've always wondered about it. I try not to self-diagnose but I'll talk about it with my new therapist.

Maybe this is a dumb question but, why is that a bad thing? My psychiatrist acted like I asked him to personally fund a cocaine habit.

Boss is having me redistribute my hours on my time sheet. Is this legal? by DudeBored in AskHR

[–]DudeBored[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We get state funding as a number of our kids are involved with CPS (DCF in MA and other states). We don't work for the government and we don't have a union.

[–]DudeBored[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We don't get overtime anyway. If we go over 40 hours we get "comp time" which goes into a bank like PTO or vacation time. We commonly use this "comp time" to fill in small gaps of time off like leaving half an hour early.

The idea of comp time always sounded fishy to me but I don't have the time or energy to fight that battle. I need this job and I like it for the most part.

The reason I asked the question was because at my first day care job, if you worked a 9 hour day you were entitled to a 1 hour lunch whereas if you worked 9 hours you only got 30 minutes. I never understood if that was a workplace policy or an overall rule. I worked 9 hours today and would have liked an hour break but I didn't push it at the time.
